			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><em>Stress may be making you sick!</em></strong> Stress is a modern plague that robs us of our health, our happiness, and our productivity.</p>
<p>According to The American Institute of Stress, “<em>Stress is America&#8217;s #1 health problem. There is more of it today and it is more dangerous!</em>”</p>
<p>The American Psychological Association estimates that “<em>75-90% of all visits to the doctor are stress-related and $300 billion dollars is lost each year by American businesses due to stress</em>.”</p>
<p>How many of your low productivity and sick days in the last year were stress related? How much did that cost you? How much did you and your family spend on health care costs last year?</p>
<p>Out-of-pocket costs relating to stress are dramatically high. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that <em>“80% of U.S. health care expenditures are stress related.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>And experts believe that as much as “<em>50% of corporate profits now go to health care costs</em>” (CMA Management Magazine).</p>
<p>And it’s not just the out-of-pocket costs. <strong>It’s the lower energy, lower enthusiasm, lower expectations, lower productivity, lower quality of life that’s the real cost of stress. <em><br />
</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Stress has been linked to:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Obesity </strong>- the CDC estimates that 65% of Americans are currently overweight or obese.</li>
<li><strong>Heart disease</strong>, <strong>stroke</strong> and <strong>cancer </strong>- the three leading causes of death in the U.S.</li>
<li><strong>Depression</strong> and <strong>anxiety</strong> &#8211; the National Institute of Mental Health estimates that 17 million Americans suffer from depression and approximately 19 million suffer from anxiety disorders.</li>
<li><strong>Diabetes</strong> &#8211; with 17 million diabetics in the U.S. it is today&#8217;s 5th deadliest disease.</li>
<li><strong>Stomach</strong> and <strong>mental disorders</strong>, along with the more common <strong>headaches</strong>,<strong>backaches</strong>, <strong>high blood pressure</strong>, <strong>high cholesterol</strong>, etc.</li>
</ul>
<p>So how much money could you and your family save if you could reduce your stress?</p>
<p>And if you are healthier and more productive won&#8217;t you be happier? Wouldn&#8217;t you get more out of life?</p>
<p><strong><em>Personal Wellbeing Profile™</em></strong><em></em>Fill out the questionnaire to identify the lifestyle changes you need to make to improve your health … and after you’ve set personal goals to accomplish them… you can keep track of the progress you’ve made.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What if you had at your fingertips… 24 hours a day, 7 days a week… the power to take control of your own health, to reduce frustration, to even improve the quality of your life?</p>
<p>What if you had an easy-to-use tool that guided you towards balancing your physical, mental, and spiritual well-being… while removing the stressors in your life that are linked to the six leading causes of death?</p>
<p>Think what all that would mean. More energy to enjoy the activities you love. Fewer sick days. Less anxiety to cope with day to day. Uninterrupted, restful nights of sleep. Fewer costly trips to the doctor…</p>
<p>And an overall sense of well-being you probably never imagined was possible!</p>
<p>That’s exactly what our online interactive program, <em><strong>Stress Reduction &amp; Personal Renewal™</strong></em> is designed to do. You get access to the most current information regarding effective <strong>time management, nutrition, exercise, sleep improvement, emotional intelligence, depression, anxiety,</strong> and many more stress-related topics.</p>
<p>Plus, you get an unlimited number of personally customized <strong>Action Plans</strong> that help you prioritize and organize all of this valuable information into easily do-able steps that systematically <em>reduce</em> the stress in your life.</p>
<p>Before we tell you just how affordable a less stressful life can be, take a look at how much stress is costing you:</p>
<ul>
<li>80% of all health care expenditures in the U.S. are stress related. (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)</li>
<li>75% to 90% of all doctors’ office visits are now stress related. (American Psychological Association)</li>
<li><em>300 billion dollars(!)</em> is lost each year by American businesses due to stress related issues that effect absenteeism, turnover, morale, productivity, insurance and workers’ compensation claims. (American Psychological Association)</li>
<li>50% of corporate profits now go for health care costs. (CMA Management Magazine)</li>
</ul>
<p>The fact is, stress is undeniably the leading cause behind the rising health care costs you hear so much about today!</p>
<p>And that’s why you’d expect to pay quite a lot of money for an online interactive program like <em><strong>Stress Reduction &amp; Personal Renewal™.</strong></em></p>
<p>The good news is&#8230; you won’t be paying a lot of money to start <em>reducing</em> the stress in your life… and enjoying the health benefits that result.</p>
<p>For <strong>only $39</strong>, you can receive access to <em><strong>Stress Reduction &amp; Personal Renewal™</strong></em> for one full year – to use at home and/or at work… 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Starting right <em><strong>now!</strong></em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Next Generation Health Risk Appraisal (HRA)</strong></p>
<p>In just minutes, you’ll confirm where you’re already making healthy choices in 7 key categories:<em><strong> fitness, nutrition, self-care, emotional health, stress reduction, life balance,</strong></em> and <em><strong>disease prevention</strong></em>. More importantly, you’ll identify those areas where you’re at risk and where you need to make some changes to improve your lifestyle for optimum health.</p>
<p>No blood samples or other expensive lab tests to get started.</p>
<p>That’s because the <em><strong>Personal Wellbeing Profile™</strong></em> focuses on the key lifestyle indicators that actually determine a healthy lifestyle from an unhealthy one. You get specific information and support to help you identify your health risks and to make the necessary changes to improve your well-being.</p>
<p>Unlike other health risk appraisals that require blood pressure and biometric measurements, along with a sample of your blood to determine things like your cholesterol level, the <em><strong>Personal Wellbeing Profile™</strong></em>appraises your health risks based on your current lifestyle – the point where most of those risks originate… and where change is bound to have the greatest chance of improving your health!</p>
<p>And, as with all <strong><em>Wellbeing Lifestyles™</em></strong> programs, you’re benefiting from in-depth, current research from many cross-referenced sources, like: the <em>U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,</em> the <em>American Heart Association,</em> the <em>American Cancer Society,</em> the <em>National Institutes of Health,</em> and many more credible sources… it&#8217;s information you can trust!</p>
<p><strong>Score Your Own Progress<br />
</strong>After you’ve filled out the <em><strong>Wellbeing Questionnaire</strong></em> to identify the lifestyle changes you need to make to improve your health … and after you’ve set personal goals to accomplish them… you can keep track of the progress you’ve made.</p>
<p>You’ll know what’s working and what’s not working for you with a visual record of your health improvement. The program’s unique <em><strong>Wellbeing Wheel</strong></em> will keep you focused on the areas you need the most help on.</p>
<p>And both the <em><strong>Wellbeing Questionnaire</strong></em> and the <em><strong>Wellbeing Wheel </strong></em>are designed so that you can come back in 6 to 12 months to use it again… and measure your improvements!</p>
<p>For <strong>only $19</strong> …and your desire to take control of your wellness… you can start right now making the change toward a healthier… and longer… life.</p>
